A woman convicted of killing her baby daughter in one of Australia ’s most notorious criminal cases has been denied parole after more than 13 years behind bars. Keli Lane , 48, was convicted in 2010 after a jury found her guilty of murdering her newborn daughter Tegan in September 1996. She was sentenced to a maximum of 18 years in prison, however, she was eligible for parole from 12 May.
The parole authority found that in the circumstances Tegan’s body had never been found, Lane should be refused parole solely based on the laws.
